Here is Chapter 5
XXXX
Jason knew by the ring tone who it was. Tommy. He had all the rangers a song that had their color in it. Kim's was Pretty in Pink, Trini's was Yellow, Billy's was I'm Blue, Zack's was Black and since Tommy was the Black Ranger now he got Back in Black. He was unsure if he should answer the phone. He knew that Kim would know Tommy's voice. He just wanted a perfect afternoon with his lil sis. He picked up his phone and flipped it open. He need that if he didn't answer Tommy would just call back.
"Jase, I need you to come by. I need your help with finding my Red." Tommy said on the other end of the phone. He knew that Jason would help if he was able.
"Do I need come right now Tommy?" Jason asked.
He knew that he would if Tommy needed him too. He had stopped at a red light and looked over at Kim. She had tensed up at the mention of Tommy's name. He knew that this would be hard. He guessed that the Youth Center was out for today. The light had turned green and Jason made a right hand turn and was making his way to Tommy's house. He was only 10 minutes away.
"Yeah, if it is possible." Tommy said. He knew that Jason was in his truck since he heard the wind in the background. He hoped that he had not called at a bad time.
"Okay, I am on my way." Jason said. He looked over at Kim and saw that she was still tense. He knew that he was in trouble.
"Thanks, Jase. I will see you soon." Tommy said. He let out a sigh of relief. He was glad that Jason was coming.

Jason flipped his phone shut and turned to Kim. He took a deep breath. She turned to look at him. He had pulled over in a gas station. He knew that Kim would not like what he was going to tell her. He might as well cut straight to the point.
"Kim, you are going to see Tommy sooner than you thought." He said. He knew that he had to be direct with Kim.
"What?" She said. Her body had got even tenser if that was possible.
"He needs my help." Jason explained. He knew that Kim would not risk Tommy being in danger.
"Jase, he is a big boy. He does not need your help." Kim said. She was not buying it that Tommy needed help. He was not the Green Ranger anymore with failing powers. He wasn't even a Power Ranger so he most certainly did not need Jason's help.
"Yeah he does." Jason countered. He hoped that Kim would not ask why. He would not lie to her but he would come up with something that was close to the truth.
"Jason!" She yelled. She did not need this right now. She knew that if Tommy really needed help she did not need to be there. She would be in the way and she would be worried about him. It would show her feelings for him.
"We are going he may need your help too." Jason stated calmly. He knew that Kim was caving a little. He had seen the look in her eyes. She was worried about Tommy. He only had to say a little more and she would be hooked.
"How so?" She asked. She knew that Jason was reeling her in and there was nothing she could do to stop it.
"Never mind. We are on our way anyway now." Jason said as he pulled out of the gas station. He locked her door for good measure. He floored it to get to Tommy's as soon as possible.
"Fine. I will sit in the car till you are done." Kim stated. She would not go in Tommy's house. She would stay in the car. She could afford to be pulled into Tommy's world again. She would stay here.
"Whatever you want." Jason said. He knew that once Kim seen Tommy's house she would go in. If she thought that Tommy needed help she could brave anything for him. She would always brave it for Tommy because she loved him too much not to.

Jason made it to Tommy's in record time. He knew that Tommy would bust outside any minute now. He hoped that Tommy would not be mad because he had Kim with him. He guessed that that was a chance he was going to have to take.
"This is where Tommy lives?" Kim said. She was amazed that Tommy lived so far out. His house was older but she instantly loved it. It was like his uncle's cabin that they had stayed in one time. She knew it was a bad sign that she loved the house.
"Yes. I think that he likes to be alone. Who knows?" Jason knew the reason that Tommy chose this house. He had thought instantly of Kim. He said that once he pictured Kim being here, he had to buy it. He knew that Kim would love it as much as he did and judging by the look on her face she loved the house.
"Jase, there is something that you are not telling me." Kim had this alarm going off in her head that something was not right with why Tommy wanted to be out here.
"Yeah but I will let Tommy tell you himself." He said seriously. He did not want to explain any of this to Kim. He would let Tommy tell her all he wanted too.
"Whatever. Just go in there and find out what he wants so we can get out of here." She said. She just wanted to get this over with. She was tempted to go into the house and she knew that she did not need to go into that house.
"Kim, just come in with me." Jason said as he unlocked the doors. He had grabbed the door handle and was pleading with Kim to come in with him.
"I told you that I was staying in the car." She said stubbornly.
"You are being a baby. I would not have thought that the Original Pink would turn out like this." He changed his tactic. He knew that insulting her was the best way sometimes. He watched as she grabbed her door handle and got the door opened.
"Fine I will go in but I'm not talking to him yet." She said as she got out of the truck. She turned and watched Jason got out on his side. She turned back to the house and took a deep breath. This was going to be hard.
"Okay that is all I ask." He said trying not to smile.
"Let's go." She said.
As they step out of Jason's Red Chevy truck, Elsa and a group of Tyrannodronos appeared. Kim and Jason slipped into fighting stances as second nature took over for them. They were always ready for a fight even though neither of them had been a ranger in a long time. They still knew all the moves.
"They are still ugly as ever Jason." Kim said as she flipped out of the way of a punch.
"Yeah they are and apparently they want a fight." Jason said as he grabbed the fist that was thrown his way. He flipped them backwards. He spun around and continued to fight.
"Wrong! I want her. She is all that is important. You are nothing to me." Elsa said. She knew that they had been rangers but she didn't know that they could still fight like they were still active. She also didn't know that they had faces hundreds of putties, tengas, and cogs between the two of them without ever morphing.
"Well I am hurt. Surely you do not want her. She like me are nobodies." Jason said as he nailed another one of the tyrannodrones. He watched Kim execute her moves with a grace that only she and Trini could ever manage.
"You are wrong. She has great inner strength that my boss wants." Elsa yelled. She knew that it would be hard to get the girl. She was a better fighter than the Yellow brat. The Yellow Ranger could learn a few moves from her.
"Kim, why do they always want you?" Jason asked. He had never understood why everyone had wanted Kim all the time. She was captured all the time.
"I don't know but you are not getting me. First off you have to get me and second this guy and the one in there will not let me go." Kim stated as she punched the pack that had surround her. She then pulled a Tommy move out and attacks all at once. She quickly narrowed the field of Tyannodrones by at least 10. She had watched Tommy and Jason for so long that she could do their moves as easy as they could.
"You are wrong. Get them!" Elsa ordered the tyrannodronos. She wanted this over quickly. She knew the Power Rangers would show up anytime now. She has wasted too much time. She needed the girl now.
Kim and Jason easily fended them off. They after all were the originals. They knew that these things were just like putties. They only had to stay on their feet and think with their brain. They had taken to watching each others backs. They had both partnered with Tommy so they knew that they could with each other as well.
"You know I sure wish that we could morph." Jason said in a huff and he just roundhouse kicked three of the things after him and Kim.
"Yeah, me too. It is just like my Ninja Quest. We had to fight the Tengas by ourselves." Kim related to him. She knew that she could do this without morphing it was just easier if they could.
As the two ducked, flipped, and out danced them, there were suddenly flashes of Yellow, Blue, Black, and White. The Dino Rangers had heard all the noise outside and came to join the fight.
"Are you two okay?" The Blue asked Kim. He was the closest to her at the time. She noticed that the Black had eased away from. She did not know what to make of that. It was almost like he was afraid of her.
"Yeah we are fine but she wants me because apparently I have a great inner strength. Whatever that means." She stated. She still could not get over the fact that she had great inner strength. She did not even know what that meant. She only knew that it could be bad.
"Okay." The Blue Ranger said to her. He motioned for them to go stand by Jason's truck. Kim and Jason went to stand by the truck.
Kim and Jason stayed back and let the Power Rangers do their work. They knew that staying back was the best thing that they could do. It was one thing to be originals but quiet another to be active rangers. They knew that by helping they could be captured or hurt then the rangers would have to worry about them and take their mind of the fight. Jason was worried that Kim would find out that Tommy was the one in the Black. He changed his fighting style but Kim knew Tommy better than even him. She knew his deepest secrets except for maybe this one. He also knew that if the fight lasted any longer then Kim would know because Tommy had slipped back into his old fighting style. He didn't know if it was because Kim was there or if he was just slipping.
Kim was standing beside Jason watching the fight unfold in front of her. She was a little upset because once again she was not fighting but being protected. At least this time she was not dropped into a lava pit. She watched each ranger's style and then it dawned on her. The Black Ranger's style was very familiar to her. It only took her a moment then it all became clear. TOMMY! She would know his style anywhere. She had fought against him and with him and his style has not changed much. He was still the Tommy she knew. What was he doing? He would never give this up apparently.
The battle went on for another few minutes till there was only a few tyranndrones were left. Elsa decided that it was time to retreat and come back another day. She and her gang left without Kimberly. That wasn't the big problem though. The big problem was that Tommy was in a world of hurt for not telling a certain someone that he was a Power Ranger again. Jason just stayed back and watched as Kim walked up to a retreating Black Ranger. He was trying to hold back a laugh. He knew Kim very well to know that she was furious at Tommy and most likely him for not telling her.
Kim walked up to him and unclipped his helmet faster than he could say stop. She was so mad at him. She also knew that Jason was a part of this too. She would deal with him later. She would get Trini in on this.
"Thomas Oliver, when are you ever going to give it up?" She said. She was mad that he did not even tell her he was a ranger again. He was a teacher for crying out loud.
"Kim, nice to see you too." Tommy said with a smile on his face. He knew that if you smiled at Kim then most of the time you were off the hook. He had a feeling that it was not going to work this time but he tried it anyway. It couldn't hurt.
"Tommy you know that it is not nice to see you. You are in so much trouble." Kim stated. She was so mad that it would not surprise her if there was smoke coming from her ears.
"Can we take this in the house? We have one Ranger without his helmet and the others are probably wondering who we are and why we know who you are." Jason reasoned. He knew that Kim would drag this out for hours. It was her nature. He had walked up them after Kim took off Tommy's helmet.
"Yeah let's go. I can fill everyone in." Tommy said. He knew that Jason had not told Kim anything about him. He had wanted to be left out of as much as possible.
The entire group made their way inside and the other Rangers powered down. Kim was still mad and Jason was trying not to laugh at Tommy's expression. They heard gravel flying and wondered what it was. They all turned when Trini busted in the door. She was irate that her husband had not called and she could only guess that he brought her here.
"JASON! Why did you bring her here?" Trini huffed out. She barely glanced around the room but she did notice that Tommy and Kim were standing side by side. She was happy to see that even though she was mad at her husband for bringing Kim here this early.
"Trini, Tommy called me and said he needed help then these ugly things showed up and wanted Kim again. The Power Rangers then showed up and the bad guys went away. Kim then found out the Tommy is the new Black Ranger and she unclipped his helmet. Then we came in here. That is all, Trini. I just hadn't had a chance to call you. Be mad at Tommy." Jason blurted out as he pointed at Tommy. He knew that he needed to calm the fuse that was Trini. She could blow up like a Roman candle if he was not careful.
Across the room from them, Kim and Tommy were laughing their heads off. They thought that it was funny that Jason was scared of Trini. They all were except for Kim. They knew that she could do some damage if provoked. They knew not to upset her because that was when the fireworks happened like they were now.
"Kim, Tommy, you guys are not helping. Tommy, tell her the truth." Jason pleaded. He did not want to die at Tommy's house. He knew that the drive did not help with Trini's anger. It had probably only made her madder.
"It's true Trini. I did call Jason but he could have called you on his way over here." Tommy said. He did not want a mad Trini on him. He already had a mad Kimberly. The two together were a bad combination.
"Way to go Tommy. I asked for help and you throw me to her." Jason cried. He knew that Tommy had taken the coward's way out.
"Trini calm down and give me a hug. I missed you so much and besides at least I found out about Tommy. Now I just need to kick his butt." Kim said. She went to her best friend and gave her a big hug. They had not seen each other in a while.
"I want to know how you knew I was here." Jason said as the two girls stepped apart. He was still confused on how his wife knew that he was here. He had told her that they would get in late so he knew the time thing was not the problem.
"I put a tracking device in your phone this morning. I knew that you would bring her here." Trini said as she turned and faced her husband. She finally looked around the room and discovered that there were other people in the room. She knew that they had not seen this side of Jason and her.
"You put a tracking device in my phone? How could you?" Jason stuttered. He could not believe that his wife would do such a thing. It was like she did not trust him.
"I had this feeling and apparently I was right. And, Kim I will not hurt Jason right now but I might later. It depends on why Tommy asked for his help." Trini said. She had calmed down some. She was still happy that Tommy and Kim were standing together when she busted in. It was that one thing that had calmed her down. Jason better be counting his lucky stars on that fact.
"Oh I still need him. My Red is missing. We cannot find him. And by the way these are my other Rangers. Kira is my Yellow, Ethan is Blue, and Trent is White and I am Black. Connor is the Red but he is the one that is missing as I said." Tommy said for Kim's sake since Jason and Trini knew them a little.
"Nice to me you guys. I am sure that this is all a shock to you but we know Tommy from a long time ago. He was a Power Ranger with us." Kim stated. She was still reeling over the fact that once again Tommy was a ranger.
"What Dr. O you were a Ranger? Why didn't you tell us?" Kira asked. She knew that there still was something she was missing.
"There is video you need to see. It will explain the history of the Rangers but right now we need to find Connor." Tommy calmly said. He knew that he needed to get Trini's mind off of Jason for the moment. He may need her mind to help find Connor. He had that thought until he heard Hayley.
"Tommy! I have found him!" Hayley screamed from the basement.
Everyone went running down the stairs first Tommy, then the Dino rangers then Jason, Trini, and at the end was Kim. She wanted to be right behind Tommy but since she did not know this Connor she only felt that she should be last. She hoped that they found Connor as soon as possible so that she would not be near Tommy for long.
